Bonded pair | Survivors of loss | Deserving of safety and love
Weโre searching for a rare kind of adopter โ someone with patience, empathy, and the willingness to meet two cats exactly where they are.
Piper and Archie arenโt your typical cuddly companions (at least not yet), but they are deeply deserving of a safe and understanding home where they can heal at their own pace.
We were alerted to their situation by an Uber driver who noticed a colony of cats outside a home in Sparks.
When we followed up, neighbors revealed they hadnโt seen the elderly man who lived there in several weeks. We called for a welfare check, and tragically, police reported back that he had passed away inside the home.
The neighbors who had been feeding the cats moved out shortly after, leaving behind a silent yard and hungry, confused animalsโ many of which still remain there today.
We immediately trapped all the cats for spay/neuter and found that four were candidates for indoor life โ Piper and Archie were two of them.
Since entering foster care 6 months ago, Piper and Archie have had ups and downs.
At first, they showed signs of friendliness, even allowing full handling.
But slowly, they began to shut down emotionally. Now, theyโre both extremely skittish and cautious around people.
They will allow pets on the head, but flinch and hiss while doing so.
These are cats in emotional survival mode โ not aggressive, but afraid.
๐งกPiper is a beautiful medium-haired female around 2 years old.
Sheโs very playful and comes alive when you bring out treats and wand toys โ especially the feather ones!
Itโs her way of engaging and showing sheโs got hope.
Piper takes her cues from Archie who is the more skittish of the two, so when Archie starts hissing, when you approach him, piper gets freaked out.
๐งกArchie is a fluffy medium-haired male around 7 years old. Heโs quieter, produces the hissing, and protective of Piper.
They lean on each other for comfort and security, and we are committed to keeping them together.
Despite their fear, they currently live peacefully alongside two dogs and are comfortable around other cats.
With the right environment โ quiet, consistent, and patient โ we believe they can slowly regain trust and feel safe again.
But we also want to be honest: that may take months or even years, and they may never become lap cats.
These two need someone who sees the value in simply keeping them safe and loved, whether or not they ever seek out affection.
Someone who understands that healing doesn't happen on a timeline.
By adopting Piper and Archie, youโll be giving them a soft landing after so much loss โ and helping us free up space for more cats in crisis.
They may not be easy.
But they are worthy.
They have been cooped up in a large cage for way too long and need the freedom in their own home.
Please be their safe place. ๐
